Don't want to come across as an annoying user, but have we made any progress in this area yet? Everyone who has expressed interest (usually) doesn't have read access to private@, so no one knows what the current status is regarding the continuation of the project by expanding the committer / pmc circle. CC'ing private@, so we can hopefully get an update.
I am asking because I read about the intention to cut a storm 2.5.0 release and I am wondering, if we get the necessary votes in a timely manner.
